Hi Mark.

My point is what if I have values that users can select from a list but they are not allowed to add new values, but not all users have editing privileges? I have a need to set a dropdown list to ReadOnly for those who do not have editing privs. My only choice now is to disable this control for those users, while other data entry controls like text boxes, spinners and edit boxes, I can set the ReadOnly property to my goApp.lEditPriv property.

Even so, it is really NBD. I assume that all you did was to add an assign method on ReadOnly in your base combo class and put this code in it:

IF This.Style = 2
  This.Enabled = m.vNewVal
ENDIF
THIS.ReadOnly = m.vNewVal

And none of your code had to change at all.
